FACTORS INFLUENCING DECISIONS TO INVEST IN KUWAIT STOCK EXCHANGE ” KSE ”

Comments on Proposal by the panel & the Supervisor :

1. The title “…Perception …” but the content is focussing on “Intention” or even “Decision”……… ( so any perception change to intention or decision )
2. Abstract … only 4 sentences!
3. No page number … until page 43.

Supervisor comments :

The title must reflect the content of you proposal. You proposed to study on the “intention” or “decision” to invest in KSE. The word “perception” has different meaning. You will have to improve on the abstract and ensure that the pages are numbered.

Chapter 1

1. Differentiate between overview and introduction
2. Background … should be Background of KSE. What background are you providing … “market efficiency”
3. Motivation … not clear
4. Problem statement … not clear
5. Research question comes first … (intention/decision); why direct relationship?
6. Research gaps???? Not so clear
7. Significance/contribution … micro vs macro variables; on supply of money, growth … how to measure?
8. Why behavioural Finance here?
9. Definition of terms … should be included
. Supervisor comments:

A chapter starts with an introduction. It introduces the main topics that will be discussed in the chapter.
From what I read, the sections on Overview, Introduction and Background are related to KSE. You will need to reorganise these sections. The information previous studies on investment decisions should be moved to Literature Review.
Motivation – should focus on the reasons you wish to undertake this study.
Problem statements – should should focus you dependent variable.
Research questions – should be consistent with your proposed research framework.
You need to improve on Research Gap and significance of your study.
Chapter 2

1. Behavioral Finance … from psychological perspective … how to link to 4 IVs? (not clear); suggestion : X explain the 4 IVs here
2. Behavioral change theories … the trans-theoretical theory; tpa; social cognitive theory … how are they related to FW; Why TPB? Not others (no strong support)
3. Table/Summary of past studies, years?; what psych factors? How about any other factors (risk)
4. LR (literature review) on each IV
5. How political stability, culture, monopoly power and trust -à psychological constructs?

Supervisor comments:

The theories you cited and try to explain in this chapter do not provide support to your research framework.

The summary of literature review that you did in the Table do not capture all the variables. You need to read the articles and add new articles that are relevant to your study. This is important so that you can have a comprehensive literature review. You are also to take note of the definition of the terms and variables used by previous researchers. (See comments on Chapter 3)
The examiner is suggesting that you have to incorporate other variables which may be important based on previous studies.
Chapter 3
1.Lack of literature support
2.Trust (operationalisation of trust) … trust on info, trust can earn more money, trust on fairness
3. Monopoly vs monopolistic?
4. Politic? Dimensions … stability/event/environment/connection (How to link to psychology?)
5. Culture? Different culture/nation … relationship to attitude?
6. DV … intention to invest? Decision to invest? … why no antecedents for PBC? (Direct relationship à RCE?)
7. Moderating factors? Age, gender, marital status …
8. Hypothesis -> moderator?
9. Population … people in Kuwait? Foreign investor?
10. Why/how permission from KSE? to get list of investors? (refer p. 63.
11. Why mention qualitative research (p. 65/66) ; typical sampling? What specific characteristics of your sample?
Supervisor comments :
The examiner is highlighting that there are many ways of operationalising a variable in research.
The writing on the population and sampling needs to be improved.
Imporant Notes:
1- Frame work must be improved demographic factor must take a place in the framework
2- Use the same reference that been used & if your using new references then it must be reachable and put the link in the references page.
3- The questionnaire must be improved with a list of table the adopted items.
4- Measurement of variables IN CHAPTER 3: adding a table showing the measurement tools that will be used to measure the variables as the following:
• Variable
• No of items been will be used
• Items constructed or modified or items adopted
• Field
• Sources ( link & research been used )
5- All chapters need to be updated to following the new correction.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Bellow you will find the new framework, research questions, research objectives, hypothesis, and table that was made by me when I collected the measures, that was updated by my supervisor
Based on those changes and their comment please do the needful to edit the whole thee chapters and get ready to finish the remaining 2 chapters, for now I am collecting data.
Please do write about any new factor mentioned in the framework and nor mentioned in the chapters with adding a good solid paragraph with references.

My order went 3 hours late and I also went mad. Then the customer support team calmed me down and offered me a flat discount of 50%. However, I did get my order and chilled out as the work was exactly what I requested. Next time I would place my order a bit sooner to save any trouble.
